    Welcome to the Forum, chris49!

    Chris,

    Is this for backup purposes?

    If for backup, then I would suggest copying the entire Profiles folder, located here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles

    If you intend to copy Mail files only from the Flash drive to another computer, with with Netscape 7.2 installed, then you can copy the Mail Folder from the Flash drive to the computer, in this location:
    C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\profile_name\xxxxxxxx.slt\Mail

    To copy:

    Close Netscape and Quick Launch (if active)
    Open Windows Explorer
    Browse to: C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles
    Right click the Profiles folder, and select "Copy" from the context menu

    Open the Flash drive, right click on any blank space, and select "Paste" from the context menu

    Alternatively, you can create a folder on the Flash drive, specifically for these folders, in advance of copying from the HDD.

    Follow the same procedure if you are copying the Mail folder

    Let us know if you have further questions.
